0 Programs with Lindsay Larris, Esq. Starting with "U"

Lindsay Larris oversees the Legislative Affairs Program in the Animal Legal Defense Fund’s Los Angeles office, working at the state and local levels to advance legislation and policy initiatives that would promote or protect the lives and interests of animals and opposing legislation that would be detrimental to animals’ well-being. Lindsay frequently collaborates with other non-profit organizations in order to accomplish these goals as well as relies upon the legal expertise of other staff attorneys to advise on important civil and criminal legislative issues. Prior to this role, Lindsay spent 2.5 years as the Regional Director for the Animal Legal Defense Fund’s Los Angeles office, building its presence in the region, planning and implementing three symposia, liaising with pro bono attorneys, students and local members, and creating the first annual Animal Legal Defense Fund Cruise for a Cause event in November 2016.

Lindsay graduated from University of Pennsylvania Law School in 2007 after graduating cum laude from New York University in 2003 with a degree in political science. While a law student, Lindsay co-founded the Journal of Animal Law and Ethics, helped bring an animal law clinic to Penn Law and served as president of her student ALDF chapter (SALDF).

As a lawyer, Lindsay learned how much power the law has in creating widespread, lasting change. So when she left private practice in search of a way to help more animals, she came to the Animal Legal Defense Fund knowing we are the only organization using the law with an exclusive focus on improving life for animals.
